Former five-star prospect Justin Edwards signs two-way contract with Philadelphia 76ers

Former Kentucky forward Justin Edwards signed a two-way contract with the NBA Philadelphia 76ers after going undrafted in the 2024 NBA Draft on Thursday.

A two-way contract indicated that Edwards’ contract will be held by both the 76ers of the NBA and the team’s G-League affiliate, the Delaware Blue Coats.

Edwards — who was a projected NBA lottery pick in the beginning of the season — didn’t have the campaign most expected him to as he averaged just 8.8 points, 3.4 rebounds and 0.9 assists through 32 games played with an average of 21.5 minutes per game.
